At North Shore Dentistry we work towards providing treatments that go that extra step beyond dentistry. To give our patients the full treatment experience they deserve, our cosmetic dentistry team have been trained and certified to perform dento-facial aesthetic treatments.
When your oral health takes a dive your appearance can also be affected. Periodontal disease, tooth loss, oral infection, receding gums and more can alter the aesthetic balance of your face. This is why North Shore Dentistry has added dento-facial aesthetics to the collection of treatments available at our Sydney practice.
Dermal fillers are cosmetic injectables designed to add volume to the treatment area. These can be used for a number of different areas including the cheeks and under-eye area. The dermal filler active ingredient used at North Shore Dentistry is a naturally occurring sugar that can be found in the body. The solution aims to replenish the areas where this particular sugar has diminished; restoring volume to the treatment area.
Wrinkle relaxants, or anti-wrinkle injections as they are commonly known, are designed to smooth wrinkles on the face. Anti-wrinkle injections can smooth out frown lines between the eyebrows, laughter lines around the eyes, jaw wrinkles, as well as forehead creases. For more information on the substances used, book a dento-facial aesthetic consultation with Dr Sasha Rutnam and her team.
Lip enhancement is the use of dermal fillers for the lips. This is a great way to frame your smile if the volume of your lips has diminished. Often we will treat patients with lip fillers if they have suffered from a condition that has caused their lips to thin. This could be due to tooth loss or age, amongst a number of other causes.
Gummy smile treatment is administered to patients who feel that their smile shows off too much of their gums. If you are finding that you are embarrassed to smile because all your teeth and gums are very noticeable, then this treatment could be the best solution for you.
